The 57th annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade will take place on Saturday, March 14, 2026, at 12:00 PM in downtown St. Louis. The parade always takes place “rain or shine.” It begins at 8th and Market streets, and proceed west to its conclusion at 22nd and Market streets.

Regularly noted as one of the top in the country, the parade is comprised of over 120 units, including marching bands, floats, huge cartoon-character balloons, 5000+ marchers, and lots of clowns. Over 250,000 spectators regularly attend, the largest of any event in downtown St. Louis, packing the streets with smiling Irish eyes and festive green attire.
We welcome our dignitaries, from Ireland and the St. Louis area. Our guests are joined by the Mayor of St. Louis, the St. Louis County Executive, other local and regional officials, and the parade’s general chairman in leading our parade.
